Go back to ancient times to be a royal merchant
Chapter 26
At the end of April, Tian Ding said hello to the customers who usually come to buy buns early, and the bun stall was about to stop.Everyone knows that the two brothers still have land at home, which is understandable, but they all feel that it is a pity that if they want to eat steamed stuffed buns in the future, they can only buy those with bad taste, and they ask when they will open again.It's even more pity to offend regular customers.
Hearing that the steamed stuffed bun stand of the Wang family brothers was about to be closed, all parties who wanted to buy the formula before were mobilized again, begging one after another, wanting to buy the buns, and now there is an unexpected bottom of 500 taels, and the silver rewarded by the emperor before Tian Ding stopped thinking about selling Fangzi, and Wang Xiubai had no objection to it. Fangzi was thought up by his younger brother, and his younger brother should have the final say on whether to sell it or not.
People from all parties did not dare to buy by force. Seeing that the two brothers would not sell, they asked if they would no longer do the steamed stuffed bun business in the near future. Seeing the two nod their heads, several people were relieved. Restaurant, they didn't pay much attention to the steamed stuffed bun business, but they were fascinated before, and then they competed to occupy the stall, and they didn't stop like a small business, so they could only stand up, although they wouldn't lose money, but they didn't earned.Now that the Wang family brothers have withdrawn, they don't have to stand up.
The biggest impact is the inn. Generally, the people who go to the inn are mostly passers-by, and there are few wealthy people. They live in the store, and they don’t know how to order good things. Dry food on the road.Since the first year of Hongyuan, staying in hotels has been unified. If you want to make more money by opening an inn, you basically get it from the food. After the buns appeared, the business of the inn has dropped a lot. , but he was really relieved.
Knowing that the steamed stuffed bun stand will close, in the last few days, the steamed stuffed buns were sold out early every day, and many people bought them in stacks and stacks.The two brothers repeatedly emphasized that steamed buns should not be kept for a long time. If they are stored for a long time, they will easily become moldy and cause stomach upset, but people still buy them.
After the stall was closed and they were free for a while, the two brothers were still a little uncomfortable, but when they went to the field, they found that even if there was no bun shop, they still had a lot of things to do, so how could they be free.
Walk carefully in the rice fields, while observing the growth of the rice, while being careful not to be caught by crabs, and clearing the weeds from time to time.Someone in Wang Village saw that Lao Liu's family raised crabs, so they had an idea and raised a few fish in it. It is said that they grow well. .
Tian Ding found it strange that fish is very nutritious. When he mentioned fish, Tim Ding realized that he hadn't eaten it for a long time.I wanted to find a fish farmer to buy one, but before I went, it was convenient for me to come to my door.The family who raised fish was a generation younger than Tian Ding and older than Wang Xiubo, and his son would run away.The other party was still a little nervous when he saw the two brothers. After saying hello, he kept rubbing his hands, not knowing how to speak.
Seeing the other party's appearance, Tian Ding thought it was funny, and thought in his heart, the other party is older, should he give some meeting gifts?After thinking about it, since the elder brother was sitting beside him, if something went wrong, the elder brother would naturally have a solution, so he said, "I was going to look for you, and I heard that your family raises fish."
"Yes, yes, yes." The other party was a little nervous. He didn't think about it so much when he raised it. He just had the idea of following the trend. Crab fry couldn't afford it, but the fry didn't cost money, so they fished some from the river. As soon as my head gets hot, I forget that fish is bitter and fishy. Even rich people will not buy it. Most restaurants will ask for some, but the price is not high. Most of them are made during the New Year’s Eve. It's just a good omen, how can he keep his fish until the New Year's Eve, so he thought that the two uncles of the sixth grandfather's family are knowledgeable people, and they set up a stall in the city, so they should know some people and want to ask for two Help sell the fish, at least make some spare money.
"How do you sell your fish? I want to buy some." When I was in the capital, I seldom ate fish. When I returned to the village, I almost never ate it.At this time, if there is fish, you should try it.
"Uncle wants to eat. Where can I buy it? My nephew will send me some to show my respect." The other party said respectfully, thinking that my little uncle has a unique taste and actually likes bitter fish.
Tian Ding didn't know if the other party was shocked by what he said. Anyway, he was shocked enough. He secretly rubbed his arm and felt the egg bumps on it dance happily. He cleared his throat and said a little embarrassedly, "You The purpose of raising fish is to make money, there is no reason for free food, as long as the price can be estimated."
"Uncle, don't make fun of your nephew. The nephew was lost for a while and put the fish fry in the rice field, but he forgot that when the rice is harvested, no one will buy the fish. If they stay in the field, they will eventually be sent back to the river." The other party sighed. He took a sneak peek at the little uncle, he didn't dare to mention this matter to Wang Xiubo, he just felt that the little uncle would be soft-hearted and he should be a talkative person.
After listening to the younger generation, Tian Ding remembered that in ancient times, not everyone knew how to cook fish, because there was bitter gall in the fish. For a period of time, fish was just placed on the table during the New Year and festivals, as a good meaning.Tian Ding thought about it, and then decided to tell his host how to get rid of suffering and fishy smell. They all live in the same village, and they are all relatives. Not to mention how close they should be, at least they should make more friends, and they should not be too isolated. It is difficult to gain a foothold in the village without paying.
"Since you call Uncle, I should give you a gift, but I think I'm too young, and I don't have much to offer. In this way, you go find a fish, and Uncle will teach you a recipe. Take it This side goes to the restaurant to sell fish, and I guarantee that your fish can be sold." Tian Ding straightened his body and told the other party to get the fish.
When the other party heard this, he felt happy, and he was naturally happy to be able to buy the fish, but he also felt that his uncle was too young to be unreliable.After hesitating for a moment, he heard Wang Xiubai cough lightly, and the other party hurriedly saluted respectfully, and then went to fetch the fish.Tian Ding looked at it and raised his eyebrows, he didn't trust him!
"Brother, don't worry, I know you are smart, but others don't." Seeing his brother's appearance, Wang Xiubai guessed a little bit, he was very curious about how his brother planned to cook fish, so that the restaurant could buy fish after seeing the recipe.
As soon as this was mentioned, Tim Ding felt depressed. "Why does elder brother trust younger brother?"
"You are my younger brother!" Wang Xiubai gave a very simple reason, Tian Ding didn't know whether he should be happy or continue to be depressed.
After a while, the other party brought the fish. Tian Ding fetched a basin of water, put the fish on a flat place, took the knife and slapped the head of the fish twice, knocking the fish unconscious, then scraped the scales, and scratched the gills of the fish. Open the mouth, and carefully take out the fish intestines and other things inside, the main thing is to take the gall.After taking it out, he pointed to the small black spot, "This is what makes the fish bitter. As long as you don't pierce it and take it out, the fish will not have a bitter taste."
Both the younger generation and Wang Xiubo looked at the black spot in the fish's intestines, just such a small thing, can make the fish so bitter it's hard to swallow?Both of them were surprised in their hearts, one was not showing it, and the other was a little excited. If it was true, his fish could really be sold, maybe even at a high price.
There is no soybean oil at home now, so it is definitely not possible to stew after frying. Timing is going to make fish soup. It is actually very simple to remove fishy smell, but people have not yet found a way.Tian Ding cleaned up the cleaned fish repeatedly, and after confirming that there was no problem, he carried the basin into the kitchen.The younger generation followed immediately, and when they reached the kitchen, they couldn't move their feet. Looking at the little uncle's posture, it seemed that he was going to do it, but, yes, yes, the little uncle is only seven years old!And looking at the appearance of the little uncle, he is quite skilled in the kitchen.
The younger generations know something about the sixth grandpa's house, the sixth grandma is sick in bed, and the sixth grandpa...doesn't mention it. Even if Uncle Xiu Bai is a gentleman and doesn't go into the kitchen, it doesn't mean that there is still an aunt. Uncle cooks.This, this is too...
Tian Ding didn't pay attention to what the junior was thinking, seeing that the other party didn't come in, he said, "What are you doing standing there, come in and have a look."
Wang Xiubo rubbed his forehead, Tian Ding didn't see what his nephew was thinking, but he could see it clearly, if his sister hadn't come into the kitchen to cook, he really couldn't see it, he would have to call someone to let Tian Ding come out.Let outsiders see it, and think that their family is bullying the younger brother.But when you think about it, their family is really like this.Wang Xiubo's face was burnt.
After being called by Tian Ding, the younger generation hurriedly followed in, stood aside and listened to the little uncle, the more he listened, the more uncomfortable he felt, what kind of life did the little uncle live at home!I saw Uncle Xiao and Uncle Xiubo busy with the steamed stuffed bun stand before, and thought they were pretty good, but I only found out when I entered the door.The younger generation thought that their family was poor in the past, and he was also the youngest son, and he had never been bullied by his brothers and sisters. Although he couldn't say that everyone loved him, he had never done hard work.In my heart, I am dissatisfied with the Sixth Grandfather's family, and sympathize with my little uncle, but I still have to pretend on the surface, and the younger generation will only feel uncomfortable.
The fish soup is easy to make, but it takes a long time. Tian Ding only explained how to get rid of the fishy smell, and explained that it would take a long time, so he sent people away.When the younger generation came out of the Sixth Grandpa’s house, they kept shaking their heads and sighing, thinking of something, turned around and walked to the field, picked out a few big fish, and sent them to the sisters and brothers’ homes. Only after comparing them did they know that there was no separation. , How well I am living.
In the evening, the family drank the delicious fish soup and ate the fish with excellent meat quality, and had endless aftertaste. You must know that even before the death, the taste of the fish was not so delicious.Tian Ding ate to his heart's content, but Wang Xiubai felt that the fish without bitter taste was more bitter after eating.As for Wang Laoliu, he just praised the delicious fish soup.The mother said, "My son has worked hard."Wang Xiubai never felt that it was so difficult to eat a meal. His mother was not in good health, but his father was in the prime of life. He considered himself an old man, and seeing his children working so hard, how could he eat with peace of mind!
Hearing that the steamed stuffed bun stand of the Wang family brothers was about to be closed, all parties who wanted to buy the formula before were mobilized again, begging one after another, wanting to buy the buns, and now there is an unexpected bottom of 500 taels, and the silver rewarded by the emperor before Tian Ding stopped thinking about selling Fangzi, and Wang Xiubai had no objection to it.
